“I hope you don’t just happen to anyone. I hope you happen to someone who appreciates your magic, someone who wants someone exactly like you — who wants the way you think, the way you carry yourself, and the way you grow.I hope you happen to someone who falls in love with how you see the world. Someone who admires your confidence and spirit, someone who doesn’t underestimate you and what you can truly do.I hope you happen to someone who sees your bravery and acknowledges your strength and will power. Someone who doesn’t stumble at your wit, but builds it up and loves every single thing about it.I hope you happen to someone who listens to what your stories, to your experiences, and will love to grow through the process with you. I hope they correct you in love and relentlessly empower you, encourage you to pursue all the things you said you will. Someone who holds your heart and honors it, who understands your value and respects what you value.I hope you happen to someone who looks at you and sees a strong, abled, courageous being. Someone who would never wish to ever limit you, or destroy your drive. Someone who won’t bring you down just to up themselves. Someone who will allow you to shine your brightest and won’t feel intimidated by your light.I hope you happen to someone who appreciates every single thing about you. From your smile to your soul. Someone who’s willing to go through the flames with you, and celebrates you on your worst day.And I hope you see it when it happens. I hope you see it in the eyes of the people you meet, the strangers, the friends, the families, the special ones and most especially in yourself. You deserve that kind of beauty in your life.” https://www.instagram.com/p/CivVLLZBXIF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Love is meant to compliment your life. Love is meant to compliment your growth. 🤍 (at BKC) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ciuo7I1IH_f/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I'm so proud of you. I'm proud of your efforts. your drive, your focus, and how you never give up. I'm proud that you found that light of hope in the darkest moments. I'm proud that you're trying everyday to get up, and get things done. There's something about you that's so beautiful; that smile you always carry. You inspire me to be the best that I can be. You give me courage through your words, and trust through your actions. You're always there when I need you, inspiring me and showing me that everything will be okay. You're so incredible and I just wanted to tell you that l'm proud of you. (at Mumbai, Maharashtra) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiumGdQoJE7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is the brutality of it all: you hold yourself back from feeling that pain, despite how crucial it is. You fawn. You tiptoe around it as if your mind is a minefield: you dodge the memories of how it felt and what hurt the most. It’s complex, the very thing you’re afraid of is what you have to face the most. In its own twisted way, this “armor” is self-sabotage: by letting your trauma make a home in your body, you’re keeping yourself from true healing. You have to return to the war. You have to let yourself feel it all: the righteous anger, the quiet grief. Bring the trauma to the forefront of your brain and fight it. Don’t let yourself be numb to it forever. By confronting it, you can then let it go. Don’t let yourself become numb to the trauma forever. Be brave enough to go back to the battlefield and face it head-on. Stare it down until it surrenders. Fight for your healing. Your heart. Yourself. Because you don’t really have another choice. 🖤 https://www.instagram.com/p/CisI92ahdx6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I don't want to date I want to form a reluctant friendship with someone seemingly incompatible with me and over several years form a profound bond and realize in the middle of a particularly 3 AM conversation that I've fallen madly and irrevocably in love. - Photo by @tsapa.jpg (at Kalina, Mumbai) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiUqI2Doo7B/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

and one day you’ll find a better person https://www.instagram.com/p/CgHxTy7hPzr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s a simple fact of life but we often like to complicate it — those who love you will show it and those who miss you will say it. It’s not always black and white, I understand, but if you have to constantly blame someone for their lack of actions or question someone’s intentions or wonder if that person misses you or loves you, then the answer is clearer than you think. Those who love you will not keep you wondering if they care or if you mean something to them and those who miss you will not go weeks or months without talking to you or reaching out to you. We make it complicated by giving them excuses or blaming their ego or their pride, but I have seen people who brushed everything aside because the person meant more to them than their ego and was more important to them than their pride. I’ve seen people apologize for their mistakes and try to make up for them. I’ve seen people constantly show up and reach out against all odds and I’ve seen people go the extra mile just to be there for someone, so don’t let anyone fool you into believing that they don’t have time or they’re busy or they’re too afraid to reach out. It’s time to stop extending yourself to those who don’t even try. It’s time to take people off the pedestal when they can go months or years without talking to you. It’s time to stop being emotionally attached to those who are emotionally unavailable to you. It’s time to stop loving them when they don’t reciprocate that love. It’s time to stop taking it personally, because you are not supposed to measure your self-worth based on someone’s inability to love you right or show up for you. You are not supposed to settle for breadcrumbs either, because these people can give so much more and it’s not your job to make them realize that. https://www.instagram.com/p/CdNvFZ5BIp8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Fall in love with someone who respects you for changing because they understand that it means you're growing. Dedicate yourself to the person who stands in awe of how you bloom, how you flourish; someone who loves you not only for who you are, but for who you have the potential to be. Please, do not ever settle for less. Keep waiting. Keep learning about yourself, keep trying and fighting for the heart within your chest. Keep growing and nourishing your wants, keep discovering your needs. When the time is right, you are going to fall in love with someone who will appreciate everything you stand for, who will compliment you in ways you never imagined. When the time is right, the love you have always been worthy of will flower within your life, and you will finally, finally, understand why you had to wait so long. https://www.instagram.com/p/CczMvjIhd3m/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is your reminder — love shouldn’t be hard. Love shouldn’t be the main complication in your life. It shouldn’t be your main source of agony. We romanticize fighting for each other and sacrificing for each other and showing someone that we’ll be there, no matter how hard they are to love. But the truth is that the person who’s right for you won’t be hard to love. Because the right kind of love feels easy. It feels like 2pm on a Sunday afternoon with your legs draped over someone else’s on a living room couch, reading separate books in comfortable silence with each other. It feels like road trips where the conversation waxes in excitable bouts and then wanes into comfortable silence as the miles pass you by. It feels like agreeing much more often than disagreeing. Like building each other up much more readily than you tear each other down. It feels like getting excited about the future together, because you’re building one that both of you genuinely want. The right kind of love isn’t centered around conflict – it’s centered around harmony. Around facilitating one another’s growth. Around supporting each other through challenges. Around bringing out the best in one another, and working through the worst as a team. Loving the person you’re with should feel as natural as breathing, most days. It should be simple and effortless to love them. It should be easy more often than it’s hard. It should be straightforward more often than it’s complicated. And if it’s not any of those things, you’re not in the right kind of relationship. Because the right kind of love feels easy, even in its most trying hour. And that kind of love is absolutely worth holding out for https://www.instagram.com/p/CcvZJuphYVr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

why it's so heavy to feel nothing 🥺♥️ Drop a ❤️ if you relate https://www.instagram.com/p/CZmvQ9NhJvP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A gentle reminder of the importance of self-worth • I hope these words read those who need them right now 🖤 You should never let how people feel about you dictate the way that you feel about yourself. It’s so common to measure your self-worth by external factors and it’s not until you truly value yourself that you learn how heart-breaking that is. Why is it that some people can so easily make you feel like you’re not good enough, or that you’re not worthy of what they have to offer? How can the way someone feels about you make you doubt yourself and destroy your confidence? Stop letting shitty people dictate how you feel about yourself. Stop letting people who have a long way to go with their personal development hinder your progression. When will you realise just how much you deserve? When will you see that you are so worthy of what you desire? When will you stop looking for validation in the wrong places? When will you realise that it’s all in you. It always has been and it always will be. 🤍 Drop a ❤️ if you like https://www.instagram.com/p/CZsG5LBhW4C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Wrap your arms around me, I'll wrap my arms around you, and just for a little while, we can pretend the rest of the world doesn't exist. For a little while, we can disappear. Now that's what I call magic. Drop a ❤️ if you like https://www.instagram.com/p/CZtznTthJ5E/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I am one of those who didn’t believe in love at first sight, in soul mate stories, in connection with a person. Have you ever had this feeling from the first exchanges, first glances with a person, of having always known her? To both take a break in time while you've spent the day on your phone with her? To agree to things that you would never agree to for anyone but you do it Because it's "her"? To discover you every day in his company. Whom fate seeks by so many different signs that it is her and not another.. I met this person, my person. Years later I still find it hard to believe. She changed my life as much as I changed hers. The moment our lips met, I knew I would remember it forever... I know sometimes reality is hard to accept, but believe me, I'm ready to fight for our history, it's a chance to have met you, and it will be a chance as much as a dream to make you the woman of a lifetime, my life. I believe in us. I love you. Drop a ❤️ if you like https://www.instagram.com/p/CZvCtGDh_Wg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Don't be afraid to be "too much." Call me 5 times a day because you wanna hear my voice or something came up and you wanna tell me immediately. Text me 12 times in a row when I don't answer fast enough. Leave me cute texts when you can't sleep. Hold my hand. Everywhere. Sit really close to me on the couch. Keep your hand on my thigh. Always have a part of you touching a part of me. Tell me you love me every hour I don't care I want to be smothered in love holy fuck life is too short to hold back.

Maybe the Universe fights for certain souls to find one another. And maybe the Universe places people in your life just to take them away, just to teach you the things that beauty cannot. Maybe the Universe fights for the heartbreaks, for the missed opportunities, for the bad timing. Maybe the Universe knows in an offhand way, that those moments will show you your strength in ways the hope cannot. Maybe it is within the losses that you truly find gratitude for all that has stayed. Maybe it is through caring for those who make us feel like we are hard to love that we are taught how to embrace those who see us, those who truly protect our souls. And maybe, just maybe, it is through the darkened journey that we are taught how to appreciate the warmth, how to chase the light, how to believe in it even when we do not feel it, how to trust that it is pinned and blooming in this world, waiting to be discovered. 🕊 Drop a ❤️ if you like (at Delhi, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaFtiZZhwgm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I've ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours. Drop a ❤️ if you like https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca60zTrBRMp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
